We have a whole generation of parents shitting on millennials, but they're the ones who raised that entitlement. I think of it as enormous self-esteem building in parallel with radical candor and lack of entitlement. And that's what I think my mom did. She told me I was the best, but when I went 0 for 4 in a little league game, she didn't blame the umpire or my coach.

But it's very rare in our society today because parents want to build self-esteem, but what they actually did was build entitlement. And kids got soft. And we're collectively soft because we didn't pay the piper and have a recession in 2009. Everything is materialistic. We all care to keep up with the Joneses. Everybody's valuing everybody's opinions.

Opinions are flying heavier and more black and white than ever because of social media. And we've gotten into this massive cocoon of everybody's listening to every voice but their own.

Lady Gaga said something yesterday on social, because she crushed the Met Gala, and she said something like, I once had a boyfriend who told me I would never be famous, that I would never win a Grammy, did you see this?

And I just so understand that. I was told by the system, by my report card, by the friends, parents, by my teachers, by everybody that I would be a failure. D's and F's.

She instilled positive reinforcement around a very good behavior. My mom also punished me on every report card. She punished me consistently through high school.
